New York City’s last surviving single-screen movie house will remain open, thanks to Netflix.

Shuttered earlier this year,the iconic Paris Theatre recently reopened for a limited run of filmmaker Noah Baumbach’s latest feature, Marriage Story, and after resuscitating one of the nation’s oldest arthouse cinemas, the online streaming service has since reached an agreement to continue leasing the Paris Theatre space.

It plans to keep the seven decades old venue open indefinitely to host special events, screenings, and theatrical releases of its original films.
